The Foyer

Last night our residents got hands on with a fun festive activity, decorating their own Christmas bauble. We got creative with paint, ribbons and a whole lot of glitter. The room was full of laughter, festive vibes, and some very sparkly masterpieces.

Get into the festive spirit and join us tonight for a fun and creative Bauble Making Workshop!

Last night’s kitchen creation turned out too good not to share!
We made buttery, melt-in-your-mouth shortbread and dipped each piece in rich, silky chocolate… and honestly? It’s a match made in dessert heaven.

Crisp. Sweet. Chocolatey.
Exactly the kind of treat that disappears faster than you can say “just one more!”

If you fancy giving it a go yourself, you’ll find the recipe saved in the folder, super simple and definitely worth trying!

Perfect with a cuppa and guaranteed to lift your mood.

Let’s make something deliciously festive together

A huge thank-you to everyone who took part in the Foyer Art Competition! We were blown away by the creativity, effort, and talent shown in every single entry.

Judging was incredibly tough, every piece had something unique and special about it. You should all be really proud of your work!

Congratulations to our winners, and a big well done to everyone who joined in, you made this competition a huge success

Last week we brought back one of your favourites, the Blueberry & Lemon Croissant Bake! The smell alone was enough to make everyone hungry, and it definitely didn’t disappoint.

Golden, zesty, and full of flavour, it’s no surprise this one was requested again! A big thank-you to everyone who joined in and made it another sweet success.

This week we got stuck into some serious comfort food a creamy Crispy Bacon and Sausage Carbonara!

Everyone got involved, chopping, stirring, to create a delicious dish. The kitchen smelled amazing, and the best part was sitting down together to enjoy the results!

Huge thanks to everyone who joined in, we love seeing you try new recipes and have fun along the way!

We had such a fun time making toffee apples this week!
A huge thank you to everyone who joined in, your creations looked amazing and tasted even better.
It’s been great seeing everyone getting involved and enjoying some autumn fun together.

What a spooktacular time we had carving pumpkins this week!
Thank you to everyone who joined in, your designs were frightfully fantastic!
